Air bricks fitted in walls and sub floor (damp floor boards).

Martin is a fair and good man to deal with, the work was completed to a high professional standard, followed by a visit 2 days after completion to check that everything was done to my satisfaction.

Assessing and curing damp problems.

Martin and his sons are a good team! He correctly assessed the damp problems and his sons carried out the work very efficiently. They were reliable and courteous. They ensured the mess was kept to a minimum and cleaned up beautifully. The agreed price was kept to even though extra little jobs were included. We would highly recommend Martin Field and Sons. Thank you.

No work needed.

I am in the process of buying a new home and a surveyor said that there was an issue with damp. This of course worried me and my partner. I called Martin to get him to have a look. He met the estate agent there and did a survey himself. To our great pleasure when he called me later that evening he said no work was needed and we don't have anything to worry about! He was very honest that he wouldn't say work needed doing just to make money for himself. This was great honesty as others would say at least something small would need doing to make a bit of cash out of the visit. I offered to pay for his time but he wouldn't take any money. I would definately use him if I need any work in the future and I would recommend him to anyone needing work doing.

Inspection of damp problem.

I'm giving this feedback, not because of work done, but because of work not done. I think like most folk I'm a bit wary of getting estimates for work as I'm sceptical that I'll be getting charged more, as I'm completely ignorant about building work. It was refreshing then that, instead of trying to find something wrong that he could fix. I was told there was a problem, but not something he could deal with. In short I liked him and felt he honest and trustworthy and if need arises. I will recommend him to others.

Condensation problem and rectifying dampness in main bedroom.

Martin is an amazing guy certainly knows his stuff! His workmanship, trustworthiness and reliability is 1st class! Nothing was too much trouble, his advice and giving my wife and I reassurance was again magnificent. I would not hesitate in using Martin again and have already recommended him to friends of ours. It was a pleasure to do business with Martin Field and Sons.

Emergency damp inspection.

Mr Field conducted an emergency damp inspection at our home after a home buyer survey identified a high level of damp. He came out within two hours of calling. He conducted the test and identified that damp was not present after another contractor had claimed that the external walls were 70% damp. Mr Field restored my faith as I did not accept the previous survey findings. Thank you!

Roof, under floor timbers, internal exposed floors, beams and joinery.

A sincere, reliable and honest man. He and his sons worked under the most difficult conditions in my period property. I had just moved and the property required a complete wood treatment spray. I had no functional rooms and my furniture and boxes were as the removal company had left me. Martin split the work to accommodate my disabilities whilst I arranged for everything to be moved into the other half of the property before he came back to continue the spraying. It was not an easy time but Martin was very understanding of my situation and went out of his way to reduce the stress I was under.
